I'm going to give you an alternate take from the PC consensus here, based on your physical and technical setup:

  • do you have a nice (oled?) TV with a large footprint relative to couch distance?
  • Is your couch comfy and big enough for two?
  • do you have a surround sound setup?
  • do you have a dedicated office room for the PC?

Lack of dedicated space is a killer for creating the atmosphere I personally want when gaming on a PC. If you answered yes to the first three questions that is a preferable environment for gaming in my books. You could get a PC to hook up to your home theater but in my opinion that's less than ideal since you'll be limited by form factor for space or just straight up uglifying the home theater space with a PC, but also it will be noisier than a PS5 which is also distracting. And of course, an HTPC is awkward to use for non-media stuff.

Lemmy showing again it can't handle any diverging opinions on ai, and moreover completely missing the point of this community.

While I don't personally share your opinion, I don't fault You for it. And I certainly agree that the output is getting better, just as it is for other generative areas like images and video. There will come a time when it will be impossible to distinguish unless explicitly stated by the creator. It's inevitable.

Ackshulie they're called chips not because they're chunks of chocolate but rather because they resemble Chip Gaines' finished products.

I really don't understand any of the dirty claims. They play similar to other teams and physicality plays into that. But for other teams it's deemed physical not dirty? I watched all knockout games and a majority of group stages. Their play is not significantly different from others in that regard, yet they get all the hate. FIFA constantly reviews behavior off the pitch and issues sanctions if things were missed but we've seen nothing of the sort for most teams (including Argentina).

To me it doesn't make sense unless you apply some kind of eurocentric filter to the criticism. At the risk of being inflammatory I perceive an air of anti-latin american sentiment in general.

Where in Canada? Toronto has small shops that are better than any of the big chains.

  • Rudy
  • Cleo's
  • Rosie's
  • Burgernator

But if you're asking me to pick from the well known chains I'd have to go with Shake Shack over the others.

This not universally true. Can vary by country, province, and court system level.

I really enjoyed my stint as a juror. Never tried to weasel out of it either.

Ultimately up to you how you approach life but what is it that you want for yourself? When you look back at the end, what is it you want to have achieved?

I get you're comfortable but this part " I don’t really have the will to learn anything new for the purpose of getting a job any more." makes me think you may be limiting yourself. Not even from a money perspective, but, from a goals perspective.
